Luke 9:51-62 “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”[i] This is the line that Jesus gives to a would-be follower. I think this is interesting, because there are three would-be followers in this story today. The next two seem reluctant, and…
“Lucas, in the offering of your life to God today, as a witness to Jesus who is Light, and Life, and Word of God, you are, in a sense, standing in the baptismal tank at St. Philip's with Bernard. Like Bernard, you don't know where you will be led, but with him you are saying, O give me grace to follow.” Br. James Koester and the community celebrate the Profession in Life Vows of Br. Lucas Hall.
“Risk, real, material risk, is the heart of this reading today. Risk to our own resources and possessions, even our own bodily health, is what Jesus brings forth to us today. Do to others as you would have them do to you, even when they aren't treating you the same. Do to others as you would have them do to you, even when such action poses a real risk to your own well-being.” Br. Lucas Hall consider the true risk inherent in Jesus' teaching and invites us to step from safety into the good work to which God calls us.
On today's episode of The Real Estate Nerds Podcast, Lucas Hall joins our host and real estate asset protection attorney Scott Smith. Today's episode was cut live at FinCon 2018, so be sure to check out the Royal Legal Solutions YouTube Channel for some video extras from this and other bonus material from the conference. Although there was plenty to do at FinCon, Lucas was kind enough to sit down and share the short version of one of his best deals. He also told us about Landlordogy and the tools that have helped him succeed as a single-family investor.Tune in to Episode 38 of The Real Estate Nerds Podcast now to hear the full conversation.Listen To Episode 38 of The Real Estate Nerds Podcast NowLucas Hall on Househacking and The Art of LandlordingScott Smith welcomes Lucas Hall onto The Real Estate Nerds Podcast. Together, the pair of investors discuss Lucas's unusual motivation for making his first investment, and how a deal that didn't appear all that great ended up being a win in the long run.[1:45] Lucas is mainly a buy-and-hold investor focusing on single-family homes. We've heard lots of reasons for investors getting into real estate, but Lucas's stands out: he had a crush on a girl who had closed on a house at 23. So naturally, he did the only logical thing--bought a house in her neighborhood.[3:00] While Lucas was able to add some roommates to the property and hack the house for profitability, it didn't come close to meeting the 1% rule. Lucas explains the 1% rule for the uninitiated: “If you buy a house for $200,000, you should be able to command $2,000 in rent monthly to at least cover your costs and make a little bit of money.” His property was near Capitol Hill in D.C., and Lucas essentially lived in the house rent-free and later used the equity to buy a condo.[4:30] While Lucas may not have gotten his 1% monthly, he did get the other thing he wanted: the girl. They have now been married for a decade. [6:00] On its own this house isn't incredibly profitable. So Lucas has taken an unusual approach to making this property work for him--hacking the property into a group house. Rather than renting to a single family, he rents to a group of six adults who each have their own rooms and common areas. Together, they pay approximately $5,000/month--almost double what Lucas would gain from a typical family. [7:00] Lucas's wife actually helped him devise this house-hacking method. He purchased the house in 2005, a time when there weren't as many online materials freely available for new landlords. Lucas learned by reading and doing, and later began blogging about his experiences.[8:58] Lucas continues to run Landlordology, a website full of resources on the art of being a landlord. He also works for Cozy, a company that creates software tools for Landlords. He describes his ideal audience as anyone with roughly 20 units or less. Lucas has essentially developed the materials he wished he had when starting out for the benefit of others.[10:40] Lucas compares learning to be a landlord to learning to fish. He describes Landlordology as a collection of best practices and the tools to be successful. [11:55] Scott asks Lucas about his current personal investing endeavors. Lucas recently purchased his first vacation/short-term rental property in Colorado. He shares some of the differences between managing this type of property compared to his typical investments. “In order to be really successful, you have to manage a joint schedule on multiple platforms,” Lucas explains.The Takeaway: Your Approach Can Be What Makes The Deal WorkLucas and Scott conclude this episode of The Real Estate Nerds Podcast by highlighting their major takeaways from Lucas's story.[13:00] Scott points out that to some, Lucas got into real estate for the ‘wrong' reasons, but he still achieved his own goals. Even with a less-than-ideal deal, Lucas was able to engineer solutions to make it work and help many other investors in the process.[14:40] Lucas concurs: “I've had that ‘bad' property for thirteen years and been renting it to groups...Even if it was a bad deal upfront, if I sold it today, I'd make a decent return on it.” The two investors agree it is impossible to know when you enter a deal[15:00] Lucas adds that factors beyond your control are often impossible to prepare for, but that real estate allows you to “wait out” bad scenarios.
“Worldly weakness, not worldly strength, enables us to encounter God. The structures of human hierarchy, whether social, economic, political, sexual, or religious, are worldly things, passing away, because it is the universal order established by God, and that has its being in God, that persists eternally. By rejecting worldly power and ambition, we may be open to the guidance of God's Spirit, and be led to encounter God face-to-face in the person of Christ.” On the Feast of Saint Luke the Evangelist, Br. Lucas Hall celebrates the message underpinning Luke's Gospel: that God can do wonders with our weakness.

“The view of a monastic vocation from Bede was one that was not isolated for its own sake. Any solitude was to protect the sanctity and regularity of prayer, but always in relationship to the surrounding people and communities. And I needed that, because I had built up in my head an idolatrous vision of the monastic life that was only as pure as it was isolated.” Br. Lucas Hall claims a long-awaited chance to thank the seventh-century monastic, Bede, for the helpful vision of the monastic life which he provides.

Episode: 112 Lucas Hall Join David Pere and Alexander Felice, with Lucas Hall, as they talk about Landlordology and how a side hustle blog evolved into one of the best sites when it comes to real estate educational tools and resources. Lucas is a successful entrepreneur, product manager, and a skilled leader with the heart of a teacher. From purchasing a townhouse to impress a girl, to becoming an expert in real estate investing and technology; he has definitely come a long way! He founded and built a landlord education business, Landlordology.com, which was acquired by Cozy in 2014 and by CoStar Group (Nasdaq: CSGP) in November 2018. At present, Landlordology still receives nearly half a million visitors a month. In this episode, Lucas will share some tips on tenant screening, short term rentals for vacation home properties, and a lot more. Stay tuned! About Lucas Hall: I'm an experienced landlord, real estate investor, national speaker, husband, father, and puppy-daddy. Oh, and the founder of Landlordology and head of industry relations at Cozy I was 24 years old when I bought my first rental property to impress a girl. That's right, a girl. She purchased her first property at the age of 23, so I did the next logical thing. I bought a six-bedroom townhouse in her neighborhood and house hacked it, bringing my own costs to near zero. My cunning plan worked because we married three years later! The moral of the story is that if diamonds are a girl's best friend, then real estate is a close second! Now, I have dozens of tenants, properties in three states, and a profitable portfolio. I counsel thousands of property managers every year, teaching them how to successfully manage their rentals, build wealth, and keep their tenants happy. I spend only a few hours a month self-managing my properties with Cozy, which saves me $34,000 a year in property management fees.

#148: Welcome to a special episode of Ask Paula! Today I’m answering questions about real estate investing, and I’ve brought a special guest on the show to join me. His name is Lucas Hall, and he’s a landlord with 5 properties in three locations (D.C., Virginia and Colorado). He’s also the founder of Landlordology and head of investor relations with Cozy. We met about five or six years ago through blogging about rental properties, and I invited him on the show today to answer questions alongside me. Anonymous asks: If you have significant equity in a home due to market appreciation, what’s the best way to leverage the value of this equity? Should you sell? Refinance? Something else? Here’s a quick snapshot of the answer: You have three options: sell, cash-out refinance, or take out a HELOC. If you’re unhappy with the property, sell it. There’s no reason to hang onto an undesirable or underperforming property. If you choose to sell, use a 1031 exchange to defer taxes on the capital gains and use the proceeds to purchase another property. Be aware, however, that the rules regarding a 1031 exchange are onerous, and there’s a chance that you might either miss the cutoff or you may be forced into trading one mediocre property for another. That said, wanting to tap equity is not a sufficient reason to sell. If you’re happy with the property, keep it and either use a cash-out refi or HELOC to tap the equity. On today’s episode, Lucas and I discuss the pro’s and con’s of both of these strategies, and explain which one is our favorite. (Lucas prefers the HELOC and I prefer the cash-out refi; on the episode you’ll hear each of us explain why.) Richard from Massachusetts asks: I’ve been listening to this podcast regularly, and thanks to this podcast I’ve opened a Roth IRA. I’ve saved $54,000 and I’m interested in investing in a Class B or Class C neighborhood in an out-of-state location. How can I find out if a neighborhood is Class B/C without visiting it? Catherine asks: I’m 27 and need investing advice. I make $75,000 per year and I have $60,000 in retirement savings. I max out an HSA. I have $12,000 in an emergency fund. I live in Los Angeles and I’d like to invest in real estate, but I don’t want to travel to another state. I’ve been thinking about Roofstock; what are your thoughts? Anonymous in Atlanta asks: My wife and I have $500,000 in savings, in addition to our 401k. We keep $130,000 of this in the market. We had an advisor that was charging a 1.6% fee, and we recently fired him. What should we do with the remainder of the cash in our savings accounts? Should we put this in Vanguard funds? I’d also like to get into real estate, but many homes in Atlanta don’t meet the one percent rule. Should we look at foreclosure auctions? Should we look further outside the city? We’re in our early 30’s and would like to retire in around 15 years. We answer these questions in today’s episode. Enjoy!
